Awareness


todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

that it's all about sobriety, not seniority

that I was on hand this morning to help celebrate the 23rd AA birthday of THE LEADER OF LAMBDA CENTER

that I get to know my recovery friends so much better by attending speaker meetings

that I have always been able and willing to learn from folks older than myself

that my periods of isolation do not mean I need to drink alcohol

that I at least know what I am doing wrong although I haven't found the courage to change -- yet

for moments of clarity

that by keeping it simple, I can keep it sober

for the months I spent in Morocco; a defining time in my life

"DON'T TELL ME I'M BURNING THE CANDLE AT BOTH ENDS;
TELL ME WHERE I CAN GET MORE WAX!"
